Cognitive Ability and In-Group Bias : An Experimental Study

Paetzel, Fabian - 2018

We study the role of performance differences in a task requiring cognitive effort on in-group bias. We show that the in …-group bias is strong in groups consisting of high-performing members, and it is weak in low-performing groups. This holds … although high-performing subjects exhibit no in-group bias as members of minimal groups, whereas low-performing subjects …
